Schedule

To see who is attending the showcase

Q4

  • Dec 2011: Feature Complete

Q1

  • Jan 16 2012: String Freeze ==> Jan 30th (lock-step with cutover)
  • Jan 16 2012: First Run Walk-Through ==> needs to be reset; pending profile migration which is getting closer
  • Jan 30 2012: Beta Cutover & Beta Declare *==> merge happened but we are day-for day slip until we have maple landed in m-c*
  • Feb 27 2012: Public Announcement at Mobile World Congress
  • March 2012: Targeting merge of Maple to m-c as soon as possible after MWC; mantra is stable yet timely
  • April/May 2012: Final Release Target ==> we are re-setting the schedule for gllayers and omtc and are working card to be as close to Q2 as possible*

Beta Readiness

  • This is bottom line: we are gated on open gl layers landing in m-c and having QA and stakeholders sign off on performance stability characteristics. We are day-for-day slip
  • We want to ship the code to beta as soon as it is ready
  • We are 95% certain this will happen within fx13
  • We can move off of the trains if needed; we won't gate on them. This means we don't think it will be as far out as June 5th and that the end of April is likely
  • This effort is the long-pole, though Sync functionality is also a critical piece of beta criteria
  • We need to evaluate other beta blockers and tag them with fennecnative-betablocker as soon as the mwc storm passes

Release Management

Open work:

  • Aki to stand up ESR builds before our 3/2 go-to-build (bug 727580)
  • We're working with the Soccorro team to get the ESR into crash-stats for Mobile

What is happening for MWC?

  • We are showing XUL for tablets: UX is awesome and we have full sync functionality
  • We are *only* showing Native on phones; we are currently targeting nightly. Maple branch being ready will be a nice surprise
  • We are converging this burn-down list:http://bit.ly/wzthK4
  • We are converging to a candidate build: 2/19 is our fall back build, there are other changes we would like for the show
  • To see Demo Content: http://paulrouget.com/mwc-demos/
  • Current Matrix of hw to demo can be found here: https://intranet.mozilla.org/FennecdemosMWC
  • We are showing XUL for tablets: UX is awesome and we have full sync functionality. We are also targeting canvas demos
  • We are *only* showing Native on phones; we are currently targeting nightly. Maple branch being ready will be a nice surprise
  • Paul Rouget is reving the content by 12:00 PST tomorrow; QA will be poised to test
  • Triage for Maple is happening @ 2 PM to determine the P1's for mwc. Focus is on general functionality and web readiness; possible readiness for canvas demos for phones.

Demos

  • Jaclyn to demo the demos :)
  • Possibly GL Cube on maple

Other Top Issues and Their Status

Sync

  • They are uplifted to Aurora: plan of record is to go to beta history and bookmarks; passwords & form-fill, tabs is highly at risk, need product input
  • We need to get to the bottom of awesome bar performance after sync (mfinkle pulled off a 97% decrease in awesomebar startup time)
  • Additional Data Types
    • Password content provider bug 704682, work started, final work based on crypto stuff, we'll converge soon
    • Forms (content provider is WIP, going through review, work starting on our end soon)
    • Tabs (no UX, no one assigned to content provider/data store, highly at risklanded)

UX & UI

Of our UX list for beta: this needs to be updated; need to circle back with Madhava. If we ship what is in Fx13 (m-c) we may have opportunities to make high value UI changes.

  • Done
    • Get the in-browser Sync UI pieces in, so people can find and set up sync bug 708414, bug 716906
    • Get the tab menu not covering the whole screen -- may seem minor, but I want people to get the right idea of how it works as of beta - bug 712526
  • Improved
    • aweseomescreen - slow top sites list coming in
    • tab menu - opening a tab, switching tabs, deleting tabs
    • Fix the p1/p2 font inflation bugs -- we want this to be as right as possible for beta; bug 706193, bug 706198
      • mobile sites exception is done - is it in nightlies/aurora?
    • Some thumbnail tweaks around differences in tab menu / start page, scaling where we shouldn't be (bug 721032)
  • Still to be fixed
    • Cut down the amount of checkerboarding - bug 716581
    • Get frecency / top sites as right as we can: bug 704977
    • Handful of startup weirdness bugs: tracked in bug 721008
    • [new] Overwhelming flat list of desktop bookmarks bug 716918
